Be recycle ready
- Place your recycling bins at the curb by 7 a.m. on your regular collection day.
- Flatten and break down cardboard boxes to save space on recycling.
- Do not put plastic bags, nor biodegradable or compostable bags in the blue bins because they could disrupt the recycling process.
- Do not put glass containers in the blue bin.
